Just curious:
Mopar has two basic performance add on/mods for the 3.6 Avenger/200:
P/N 77070048, Mopar Cold Air Intake System.
P/N 5156013 Cat-Back Exhaust System,
(and boy, it sure aint cheap!) Corsa makes it and offers their version for $200 less.
That's from Mopar, then there are a couple of people who make ported throttle bodies for the 3.6l; Modern Performace and some Fastman guy.
The only other Dodge Avenger and 200 forum I can find has most owners swearing by the CAI and exhaust; some say there's an increase but not worth the price. There is mixed opinions on the ported throttle body: some say there's an increase in performace while others say it's in their head.
There are a lot of people on THIS forum who REALLY know best of all, so my question is:
Are these things worth it? Do they really make a difference for these engines (not in general, but for the Pentastars) Or are they gimmicks?
I suspect the ported TB might be a waste of money, but I would imagine that if Mopar offers a CAI and exhaust, it'll be legitimate. But would it be worth the cost?
